Fawn Worsted Wool Serge
Serge, such as this Fawn Worsted Wool Serge, was a twilled cloth with a worsted warp and woolen weft that was lighter than kersey and of a higher quality. Many qualities were woven and used for a variety of applications, ranging from bedding to linings and outer garments. One coarse "sarge" in the Foundling collection was used as a baby blanket, while finer Norwich serges were frequently made up into men's suits.
